Much ado about something important

To the editor:

To do almost anything today, you must show a photo ID; that goes for getting Social Security, welfare, opening a bank account, cashing a check, using a credit card, applying for credit and the list goes on.

I can only assume, then, that those who are against voter identification laws are in fact, for voter fraud or are active fraudulent voters.

The only alternative I see is going the route of foreign countries and using indelible ink on each voter’s hand, thumb or even forehead if necessary.

There are those who say voter fraud is not that serious; but in the last election there were many cities that reported precincts going 100 percent to Obama — with none going to old “what’s his name.” Even one fraudulent vote is too many in my book.

If there is any minority or elderly folks who need a free North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles picture ID, I am sure any number of leftist organizations will be glad to take you there. If not, you can call the local Democrat Party. If all that fails, I can guarantee the Republicans will take you.

Come on people — get your act together and make your vote count. It sure does not now!
